What should you eat while you’re driving your SUV through a crowd of hippies?
Why, the Burger King Texas Double Whopper, of course.
I’m praying that this will lead to a series of commercials that will be replacing those creepy-the-King ads.
[via Lynn of A Sweet, Familiar Dissonance]
UPDATE 12:45PM – Note to offended vegetarian women: the commercial is funny because it exaggerates a stereotype of men. It’s just a freakin’ commercial, and NOT a personal attack designed by the cannibalistic carnivorous patriarchal hegemony. Please try to relax.
Maybe this short cinematic work featuring the plight of an oppressed agrarian cultivator will soothe your tattered nerves.
It has everything you need
1. Meat
2. Violence
3. Trucks
Add some guns and cowboys and not even France could withstand such manlyness.
That King creeps me out too. I am glad I am not the only one.
The king creeps EVERYONE out. I’m sure even Steven King has nightmares about his completely lifeless face and silent eeriness. The king in bed thing- someone’s got some serious issues.
Someone had that costume at a contest last year – it’s even creepier in person.
Even David Lynch characters SAY SOMETHING, for heaven’s sake.
THAT’S NOT FUNNY!… so says
Amanda Marcott
So THERE’S the beef! Finally, after 20 years of searching…..
In the 70’s and 80’s, the ‘king’ used to be played by a real live person without a mask. He was creepy back then, too. Every person I’ve talked to who remembers him had the same impression: mainly that he reminded them vaugly of a child molester, which was all the more disterbing because of all the children that were in the ads with him back then. I’m not implying that he IS a child molester, I’m just saying maybe we should check the Megan’s Law website, just to be on the safe side.
Thanks for the link. 🙂
That creepy king is DISTURBING – even before they came up with the king in bed commercial. Not what I would ever want to wake up next to! Serious issues indeed.
I have more to say about Amanda’s feminist screed.
Those vegetarians are nothing but a bunch of stinking hypocrites. I mean, they’re made of meat!
I think I’m the only person on the planet who loves the King. I admit he’s a little creepy, but in an endearing way.
The King is creepy, but funny
They’re offended at a lot less. See here and here.
Let’s try this again. See here and here.
